Please improve the skin viewer just a bit
« on: March 20, 2008, 04:31:17 PM »
The skin viewer would be a lot better if it had just a few small extra features.  This is a good example of what would be better than what we have now:
"CMX Viewer S2Y" on this page: http://www.lfs.net/?page=addons

We'd have field of view control, zoom control, lighting color, and a toggle between centered and free perspective.  The orthogonal side views are very good too. 

Please give it a look, click on everything to see what each thing does..

I can't remember the last time the Skin Viewer got an update. Definitely time for one.

Do we have a skin viewer that allows us to view a skin before downloading it?

We'd have field of view control, zoom control, <snip> and a toggle between centered and free perspective. 
Try using the <ctrl> and <Shift> keys along with the right mouse button.

Thanks Mother.  Have you tried that viewer I linked to?  The differences are self-evident..

I know.. I'd tried the ctrl and shift looks. I don't mean to be negative, but it's just .. well you know what I think if you look at that other viewer.

Well, we have www.ah-skins.com which has a screen shot of each skin located on the website. Other than that, no.
